Handling Spelling (New ed)

If boredom is the enemy of learning, this book has abnished the enemy. the exersices and examples include no less than three hundred jokes, forty-four epigrams and metaphores, forty amusing rhymes, and twenty three verses from the great poets.The exersices are carefully graded in order of difficulty, ranging from simple questions that every pupil can answer, to a few difficult ones at the end.The seventy five illustrations and twenty-four 'mnemonic word panels' are reinforcements of the lesson in visual terms, a unique feature being that fifty-seven of the illustrations are constructed from the actual letters dealt with in the lesson.The lessons cover every aspect of spelling, and the variety and entertainment afforded should make the work enjoyable as well as instructive.
